Philippe Clement pushes Charles De Ketelaere aside | Football24

The fact that Club Brugge has a very strong core was proved once again on Saturday on the field of STVV. Bas Dost was allowed to show up again, which in turn had consequences for other basic players.

Because the tall Dutchman can only operate as a deep striker, Philippe Clement decided to push Charles De Ketelaere aside and you can take that literally. Because the youngster had to take the position of left wing attacker.

And that while he has always said that he prefers to play centrally. Only the Red Devil will have to continue to adapt to that, because as long as Dost plays there is no other option. Also because Hans Vanaken takes on the central role of number ten.

So it will take some getting used to for De Ketelaere. As a pure team player he will continue to comply with the team orders, but that will not be in full sense. Before the season there was an agreement between the player, Clement and the club that he would be (much) more centrally located. Wait and see how that ends.
